The end of an era.

Ramblings / September 4, 2006 / John / 1

Steve Irwin, conservationist and documentarian, died at the weekend after a fatal encounter with a normally harmless stingray. We’re all upset by this – particularly the children. Mr Irwin has been a part of our lives since the children were tiny and is in no small way responsible for the interest and respect they have for the environment around them.

It’s a tragic loss to everyone – his young family, the environment and to his audience, and he’ll be sorely missed.
